    About “Der ist für die Tonne”

    Hannah earns her living helping others clear out their homes. A new job takes her to the apartment of Pascal, the man her best friend has just started seeing, and the very first visit ends in an argument over every single household item.

    The more thoroughly Hannah clears up, the deeper she sinks into emotional turmoil. Among the old clutter, she comes across a find that leaves no one cold, and she feels drawn to Pascal in a way she did not expect.

    Can Hannah let go of what does her no good, and what will become of the argument over the clearing out in the end?

    Who is “Der ist für die Tonne” for?

    For readers of contemporary fiction with humor and a bit of romantic confusion. If you like characters who have their lives less than fully under control and do not take themselves too seriously, you will find a fitting tone here. If you have already read other novels by Ellen Berg, you will get a familiar narrative voice that views everyday life with wit.

    When is “Der ist für die Tonne” the best read?

    The novel suits a Sunday when you want to go through your cupboards anyway, or a spring cleaning. At just over 300 pages, it is easy to read over a long weekend. If you prefer the audiobook, you can listen while tidying your own home.
